These were just way too much fun!!!These decorative pillows were a ladies size 28 pair of Versace Couture Jeans. Upcycled, recycled, repurposed or whatever you call it, when I finished I had only eight square inches of fabric left. Eco smart or what? It takes hours to unpick an article like this but it's important to save what you can. It's always the last scrap you throw away that's needed for buttons.

My Luxe and Found Pillow Collection is all about upcycling interesting bits of clothing, belts or even household items and artistically embellishing a pillow. These are absolutely unique and to have a wee bit of Versace is just heaven! Bonus ipod pockets too.

I can hardly wait to show you what's next on my work table! It is Chic Geek so come on back and check it out. The Versace pillows are for sale at PillowThrowDecor.Etsy.com starting at $65. If you like em' by em' quick... These cannot be duplicated!
